TW Hawk

I am a writer, filmmaker, and Hollywood creative entrepreneur. I produced the film, 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU, and innovated talent representation as one of the first literary managers in Hollywood.

I am also an international speaker giving inspirational seminars from Lisbon to Los Angeles; from Amsterdam to Kenya. I've taught branding and teamwork at Stanford, guided start-ups in media and technology, and am a veteran content creator with 30 years discovering talent, shaping creative works, and deal-making.

My book, HOW TO SUCCEED ON PURPOSE, is hailed as "a top business book every entrepreneur and startup founder should read" and has appeared on recommend lists alongside books by Seth Godin, Guy Kawasaki, Eric Reis and Peter Thiel. It has also been called a "little spiritual masterpiece" and likened to books by Alan Watts, David Lynch and even... The Bible.
